Safety Devices; Motor Restart Inhibitor; Safety Interlock; Motor Run-Down Brake - Viking GE 150 Manual De Instrucciones

Damp or wet soft material will
cause blockages in the machine
more quickly. For this reason, feed
the garden shredder more slowly
and pay particular attention to the
motor speed. It should not drop
during feeding.
Hard material:
Cut up thick branches and
branches with side shoots (note the
maximum branch thickness
( 8.3)) beforehand using loppers.
● Feed tree and hedge cuttings as well as
branch material slowly into the feed
opening (1). The hard material is
automatically drawn in by the machine.
Risk of injury!
The inclined blade unit can cause
branches to kick back.
In order to prevent injuries caused
by kickback, the garden shredder
must be fed with hard material in
the correct manner:
Insert longer branches at a slight
angle and guide them along the
right-hand chute wall to the blade
unit in accordance with the
symbol (2).
Observe the correct motor load.

9. Safety devices

9.1 Motor restart inhibitor

The machine can only be started via the
switch and not by plugging the electric
cable into the mains socket.

9.2 Safety interlock

The motor/shredding tool may only be
operated when the feed chute has been
properly closed. If the right closure screw
(machine viewed from the front) becomes
loose during operation, the motor is
switched off automatically and after a few
seconds the shredding tool comes to a
standstill.

9.3 Motor run-down brake

The motor run-down brake shortens the
run-down time from when the machine is
switched off until the blades stop to a few
seconds.

9.4 Protective covers

The garden shredder is equipped with
protective covers in the feeding and
ejection areas. These include the
complete feed chute with the upper chute
and splash guard, the ejection chute
extension and the discharge flap.
The protective covers ensure that a safe
distance is maintained from the shredding
blades.
